groselle Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I just picked up this emblem for my 1930 series 66. The enamel is missing from the oval. When I look at online pictures some look purple and others appear blue. Does anyone know the correct color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keiser31 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) The one on the rear of my 1929 Chrysler roadster was purple. Edited January 26, 2020 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaiah Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I would also say its purple It looks like it was clear coated or what ever they did back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaiah Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Are those pictures good enough ? I went to the barn and its cold here and the lights didnt want to come on . So i tried a couple shots and the camera battery went dead. Do you have any pictures of your car? Would like to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groselle Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 The pictures were just what I was looking for. I had the same problem tonight trying to get some pictures of my 1936 Buick for someone. It was so cold in the garage that the lights were not cooperating. I have a website with some pictures but when I tried to go to it tonight it appears they have stopped hosting it. But here's a link to some pictures of the Chrysler. https://webmailbyui-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/personal/groselle_byui_edu/Es5qbj_UDkREskr47Yb404IBR0h8ffPLoU7kRGxvQ6QAIg?e=xuklj7 I rescued it from teenage and homeless vandals on my father-in-laws back 40. It needs a lot of work but I have most of the bits and pieces. The exception being the radiator and shell and headlight reflectors which seem to have been stolen at some point. I've managed to get a 1929 Dodge radiator that is very close and a 1930 77 radiator shell. I just picked up the emblem the other day on eBay. The Chrysler will have to wait until a few other projects are further along, but I try to keep an eye for needed parts. Let me know if the link doesn't work.

groselle Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 If you ever run across a 1930 66 radiator or shell let me know. I'd also be interested in the headlight reflectors. I've got the buckets and lenses but not the internals. I also updated my website to a new host and domain if you want to see my Buick and a few other projects. www.1936buick.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyS Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I would consider sending it out to get done. I sent mine to Karla Maxwell in California. She did a great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaiah Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Nice Buick. Ill keep an eye out for those parts, swap meets will be coming up soon. I have a 1942 Packard Clipper project. it runs and have drove it to the corner a couple times. it needs glass and break shoes re lined . I ad the Clutter doctor reline the shoes for me , his contact is in my 1930 Chrysler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Wolfe Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Emblemagic.com Don't know if they are still restoring yet or not. They should be able to help or maybe have a restored one for sale... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
